The integrated navigation system(INS) for fishing boat which organized the marine radar, global positioning system(GPS) compass, automatic identification system(AIS), echo sounder, GPS and electronic nautical chart(ENC) was manufactured to reduce the marine accidents of fishing boats occurred frequently at coastal and offshore. The application possibility of INS for fishing boat was examined for basic experiments in the sea. Integration display of various information, such as other vessel's behavior, depth, own vessel's position etc. was done to help the operate user who understood the circumstance around own boat. Therefore, the system will be utilized as a useful equipment for safety voyage and fishing work on the fishing ground.

This paper presents a structural design review of a marine loading arm used for the fluid transfer of a liquid cargo from a ship or offshore plant. The marine loading arm is installed on a ship, offshore plant, or jetty in order to load or unload liquid cargo such as crude oil, liquefied natural gas (LNG), chemical products, etc. The structural design of this marine loading arm is obliged to comply with the design and construction specifications regulated by the oil companies and international marine forum (OCIMF). In this paper, the structural safety of the initial design for the marine loading arm is evaluated for the design load conditions required by various operational modes. The evaluated results based on a finite element analysis (FEA) are reviewed in relation to the OCIMF specifications.

Response Surface Method (RSM) has been widely used for flammable cloud size prediction as it can reduce computational intensity for further Explosion Risk Analysis (ERA) especially during the early design phase of offshore platforms. However, RSM encounters the overfitting problem under very limited simulations. In order to overcome the disadvantage of RSM, Bayesian Regularization Artificial Neural (BRANN)-based model has been recently developed and its robustness and efficiency have been widely verified. However, for ERA during the early design phase, there seems to be room to further reduce the computational intensity while ensuring the model's acceptable accuracy. This study aims to develop an integrated method, namely the combination of Center Composite Design (CCD) method with Bayesian Regularization Artificial Neural Network (BRANN), for flammable cloud size prediction. A case study with constant and transient leakages is conducted to illustrate the feasibility and advantage of this hybrid method. Additionally, the performance of CCD-BRANN is compared with that of RSM. It is concluded that the newly developed hybrid method is more robust and computational efficient for ERAs during early design phase.

This study is focused on concepts and types of drilling investigating the scope of activity and problems the application of marine environment and safety acts related to deep-sea drilling for the development of the continental shelf in Korea. For the systemic development of subsea mineral resources, this study suggest a legislative proposal for the establishment of a separate law based on the UK Offshore Installation (Safety Case) regulation and improvement of the marine environment management act, maritime safety act and oil & mining safety regulation. Specially, this study emphasized on the necessity of establishing education, training and evaluation system according to the international certification training for the domestic work force based on accident cases related to overseas offshore plants.

In this paper, safety analysis of the process of installing offshore structures such as manifolds and jacket-type substructures using floating cranes and barges in waves is performed. The safety analysis consists of three components. First, the dynamic responses of the offshore structure, cranes, and barge, all of which are moored and connected using wire ropes, are analyzed. Second, tensions in the wire ropes connecting the cranes and the offshore structures are calculated. Finally, any collision between the offshore structure and the cranes or the barge that transports the offshore structure is detected. Equations of motion of the offshore structure, cranes, and barge are formulated based on multibody dynamics, as well as considering the hydrostatic, hydrodynamic, and mooring forces. Additionally, proportional-derivative control of the tagline between the cranes and the offshore structure is performed to verify the safety of the installation process, as well as for reducing the dynamic response and collisions among them.

There are obvious differences between the characteristics of offshore ground motion and onshore ground motion in current studies, and factors such as water layer and site conditions have great influence on the characteristics of offshore ground motion. In addition, unlike seismic response analysis of offshore superstructures such as sea-crossing bridges, tunnels are affected by offshore soil constraints, so it is necessary to consider the dynamic interaction between structure and offshore soil layer. Therefore, a seismic response analysis model considering the seawater, soil layer and tunnel structure coupling is established. Firstly, the measured offshore and different soil layers onshore ground records are input respectively, and the difference of seismic response under different types of ground motions is analyzed. Then, the models of different site conditions were input into the measured onshore bedrock strong ground motion records to study the influence of seawater layer and silt soft soil layer on the seabed and tunnel structure. The results show that the overall seismic response between the seabed and the tunnel structure is more significant when the offshore ground motion is input. The seawater layer can suppression the vertical seismic response of seabed and tunnel structure, while the slit soft soil layer can amplify the horizontal seismic response. The results will help to promote seismic wave selection of marine structures and provide reference for improving the accuracy of seismic design of immersed tunnels.
